I don't understand the disease but I know the cure. I use two (or more)
internal modes thus:
--------------------------------------
\startmode[pruf]
\definepapersize[halff][width=5.0in,height=8.5in]
\setuppapersize[halff][letter]
\stopmode
.....
\startmode[hal]
\definepapersize[halff][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
\definepapersize[ful][width=8.5in,height=11in]
\setuppapersize[halff][ful]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
\stopmode
----------------------------------------------
I run with --mode=pruf
until things come out right.
Then I run just one time with
--mode=hal --arrange
The earlier runs create the TOC etc. and the last run arranges the pages (and
also destroys the work files) But the TOC has already been added before the
"file-icide" takes effect.
